Access Ideas and Insights: Disability Leadership

In celebration of International Day of People with Disability, Accessible Arts, in partnership with the Sydney Opera House, presents a much-anticipated Access Ideas and Insights event exploring Disability Leadership.

Renowned artist Uncle Paul Calcott, musician, writer and activist Eliza Hull, and Arts and Disability Network Australia Director Sarah-Mace Dennis will share insights into Disability Leadership – a vital transformative force shaping the future of the arts.

MC’d by Accessible Arts CEO Liz Martin, with an introduction by the Sydney Opera House’s Senior Manager Access, a leader with lived experience of disability, this pivotal discussion will delve into the profound impact and distinctive potential of disability culture within arts practice, as well as organisational disability leadership across the arts, culture and screen sectors.

As we strive towards a re-balancing of power and much-needed increase in authentic representation in the arts, we ask: What does ‘disability-led’ look like, and how can we best support disability leadership and self-determination?
